Platform Nation London | AI + Platform Engineering Meetup

​Join us for an evening of conversation, food, and drinks with Platform Engineering, DevOps, and Engineering leaders exploring how AI is reshaping software delivery and operational scale.

​As organizations move beyond AI experimentation, engineering teams are facing a new challenge: how to safely operationalize AI across the SDLC while maintaining governance, visibility, and developer velocity.

​Agenda:

• ​6pm: Doors open - Food & Drinks!

• ​6:30pm: From Patterns to Playbooks: DevEx, AI, and Platform Engineering in the Real World - Simon WIlliams, Sportradar

• ​6:55pm: Architecting Platforms that Power Humans and Agents - Abby Bangser, CNCF Ambassador

• ​7:20pm: Context & Self-Service at Scale - Rim Cernauskas, LeanTree

• ​7:45pm: Networking

• ​8:30: Event Ends

​Topics Include

• ​Why AI adoption in engineering often stalls at the human layer, and what platform teams can do about it

• ​The hidden cost of collapsing infrastructure, platform, and application concerns into a single convenience layer

• ​Why AI agents need governed platform capabilities

• ​How platform engineering becomes the coordination layer for people, tools, and intelligent agents at scale

• ​The organizational patterns behind successful platform adoption

​No product pitches. No lengthy presentations. Just practical conversations with leaders building the future of engineering.
